Kakashi had done this a million times before, but this time was growing incredibly strange. Ever since he left camp to mark out the surrounding area, he felt eyes on his back. It wasn't discomforting, per se, but it was a little distracting. He had brought a handful of his dogs to help him along and to keep the mountain lions and bears away, so he wasn't concerned with what was following him. Kakashi simply continued on his trek through the wilderness.
Ever since Kakashi was a boy, he had explored these mountains with his father who had taught him almost everything he knew. His father had been an explorer and a scholar constantly on the lookout for the lost civilization said to lurk in these mountains. Unfortunately, he had never found such a thing. There were no ruins and no people in these mountains and his father had driven himself mad searching for it. Eventually, this led to being ostracized by the rest of the scientific community, ending in his father taking his own life and leaving Kakashi all alone. Kakashi however, was determined to carry on his father's work and clear his name, so he spent every day he could spare in these mountains, mapping out the region in search of these lost people.
He didn't much mind taking his father's work into his own hands. It kept him away from other people, giving him plenty of time to himself. Besides, the scenery around him was beautiful. Why would he need to be around other people when he had the wilderness as his companion? The silver mountaintops peeking out from over crisp greenery beyond towering trees were his home, and an impossibly large expanse of stars dotting the night sky were his friends, along with his dogs of course. He preferred it that way.
When Kakashi stopped for the night, he still felt those eyes on him, watching set up camp and settle in for the night. He wasn't too disturbed, but to make sure whatever creature it was didn't get the brave idea to attack in the night, he let his dogs sleep in the grass outside of his tent. They tended to like snuffling beneath the moonlight more than being cramped together with Kakashi in his tent anyhow.
It wasn't long before he heard the dogs carrying on and barking madly at some intruder Kakashi could not perceive. He began to stir, needing to go out and investigate. Most creatures fled at the scent of dogs and even more so with a human among them. Kakashi couldn't imagine what was causing the commotion and began to sit up, only to realize his lower body was pinned down by an enormous weight and a pale face loomed over him.
Kakashi looked over the humanoid creature who sat on his belly in all of its nude glory. Its two mismatched eyes, one vermillion and the other amethyst stared down at him curiously, its brow furrowed and adorned with a set of ivory horns. His - obviously 'his' since Kakashi found all of the creature on display for him to drink in - body was as pale as moonlight, hair the same silken strands as Kakashi's own but that of which glimmered in the low light that peeked through the mesh 'windows' of the tent. Several protrusions sat on the creature's shoulders, long and thin, and at the sight of the being, Kakashi was lost in awe.
He had no idea what to say. This creature looked just like one of the members of the Uchiha civilization that his father had longed to discover since before Kakashi was born, and he was beautiful. Kakashi's heart pounded in his chest as he looked over him. He had honestly never imagined this day would come and he grinned in amazement up at the creature. "Beautiful," he murmured, not only complimenting his dreams in coming true, but also the creature in its purest state.
The creature spoke softly to him as if asking him a question, cocking its head at him curiously while prodding at Kakashi's t-shirt. It took a second time to realize he was speaking in Rinne, 'the gods' tongue' and to understand what was said. "What are you?" It demanded with a skeptical frown.
Kakashi was now greatly for the constant drilling his father gave him on speaking and writing in such an obscure, dead language. He had never heard anyone but his father speak it before, but then, half of the time, he had been forced to speak 'Rinne' around his father. 'It's to practice for whenever we find what we're looking for,' his father had told him.
So Kakashi finally answered in the same tongue, "Man."
The protrusions on the creature's shoulders ruffled up before falling back in their previous position as its mouth made an interested 'O'. "The 'man' speaks?" it mused aloud as its eyes darted over Kakashi. He leaned his head down closer to him, their faces inches from touching and it sent a shiver down Kakashi's spine as it huffed warmth breath on him as it took in his scent. "What is a 'man'? Is it… dangerous?" his mismatched eyes narrowed on him as he seemed to be awaiting a signal that Kakashi wasn't what he seemed.
Kakashi held up his hands placatingly. "Not dangerous. Just a traveler. I mean no harm," he answered in an attempt to reassure the creature. It must have worked because the creature fell back to sit straight on his lap, although it continued to gaze down at him with the wondrous eyes of a child.
After a moment of silence between them, he soon caught the creature preening over him and it puffed out its chest proudly. "Then traveler, I will tell my name. I am Obito Uchiha, son of Madara Uchiha, Eyes of the Gods, and the Last of the Uchiha. Who are you?"
It took a few moments for Kakashi to mull over his title so he could understand it. Maybe that's why the creature - no, why Obito - had been following him all day? Because he was all alone, and knowing the layout of most of this part of the forest, Obito hadn't seen anyone in a while. That explained his curiosity toward Kakashi and made him feel sorry for this kindred spirit, but also, it sent a thrill down Kakashi's spine once more to know he had fulfilled his father's dream. A Hatake had discovered what was left of the lost Uchiha civilization and it was sitting right on top of him!
"I am Kakashi Hatake," he answered honestly, a small smile stealing across his lips. "I'm pleased to meet you."
Obito frowned at him and tilted his head once more. "And what of your honor?" He asked, "Do you have none?"
"Oh… I have a Ph.D. in archaeology?" Kakashi didn't really know what else he could use as his 'honor', but it appeared that that accounted for something in the creature's eyes as Obito shrugged and didn't push the matter.
"Kakashi Hatake of the Ph.D. in archaeology? I suppose your kind are not like the Uchiha at all," he huffed and moved on to something else that amused him. Obito began to pull at the fabric of Kakashi's cottony shirt once again. "What is this?"
The corners of Kakashi's lips pulled up into a warm smile as he let out a soft hum. "That's part of my clothes. They keep me warm or protected from the elements," he answered the creature.
Obito murmured something unintelligible before responding with a soft, "Interesting. Yet another way that your kind is unique to mine."
"I suppose," Kakashi chuckled. He liked the way Obito's brows furrowed in his baffled curiosity and his inquisitive mind. It amused him to no end, not that his body didn't either. Obito was beautiful, regardless of the fact that he was obviously more than human.
"Obito?" Kakashi received the creature's undivided attention upon calling his name. "Where did you come from? Ever since I was a boy, I've scouted these mountains and I've never seen another creature like you nor any signs of your kind living here. There are no ruins of any kind, but yet… you're here, right now. I don't understand."
Kakashi watched as Obito shifted uncomfortably on his lap. Inadvertently, Kakashi flushed as he felt the creature nudge against his filling sex without meaning to. Needless to say, he was glad for the low amount of light between them, leaking through the mesh of the tent.
"I could ask you the same. This is my territory after all and you are a trespasser in it," Obito pointed out bluntly, the protrusions on his shoulders ruffling as though ruminating over a thought that occurred to him in his meaningful pause. A bold smirk crossed his face once again, "But… I think I can make an exception, and show you to my home."
That was what Kakashi wanted more than anything else in the world. His eyes lit up with humor and excitement. "That'd be amazing!" Kakashi chirped without a moment's thought. "What kind of home is it? A hut or a structure of some kind? Maybe you live in a cave or in the treetops?"
The creature purred. "You're really so eager, aren't you? But you'll see soon enough." Obito's mismatched eyes seemed half-lidded and smoky, in the moonlight and his expression was that of a cat that found a particularly entertaining prey. Kakashi frowned, feeling that he was missing something, but he quickly stifled the thought and stashed it elsewhere. He was on the verge of an archaeological breakthrough; a little inside joke from a non-hostile creature wasn't going to bother him now.
"Uh… right then…" Kakashi murmured. Obito was still sitting a little too close to his unmentionables for what he felt comfortable now. The suggestive look the creature was sending him was certainly not doing him any favors in maintaining their conversation, but he carried on. "What do you normally do for food? Raise cattle? Hunt? Farm? I assume your people were probably hunters and gatherers."
"Mmmmm, you're probably right. I do a lot of hunting, even such as hunting for a mate for instance," a low rumble emanated from the creature's throat, almost feline in nature. Kakashi's heart beat a little faster at the sound of it.
"You-" Kakashi swallowed thickly, remembering himself and once again making the attempt to stave off his arousal. "Your culture hunts for your significant other?"
"Significant other? Hm… I don't think that's the term I'd use. Maybe 'lover' would be much more appropriate," Obito responded. The protrusions on his shoulders vibrated once more as he ran his hand up to cup Kakashi's cheek, caressing it with a thumb. It was getting more difficult to speak in Obito's presence and below the belt, he was more than happy if this progressed into something other than a conversation with the shimmering, moonlit creature before him.
"Uh, um… so what type of courting rituals do you have?" Kakashi murmured softly, wading out into deeper waters.
Obito chuckled playfully and leaned over Kakashi, his rigid, muscular body pressed to Kakashi's as he planted a hand on either side of his head. That's when it finally hit him.
"Oh…" Kakashi's face flushed hotly as the implications were made clear.
The creature ground itself down on him, making his aching cock twitch and pulling a low groan from Kakashi's throat. Having the confining fabric of both his pants and his sleeping bag between them was maddening, but then again, would he really make an attempt to have sex with this creature?
"Would you like me to show you just how I'd like to court you?" Obito asked, his voice in a low, seductive growl. Kakashi could feel the creature's thickening cock prodding against his belly, proposing a mutual attraction between the two of them. His face was close enough that when Kakashi breathed, their noses brushed and he could taste the cool, minty breath against his lips.
Kakashi had his answer. Yes. He'd definitely have sex with a humanoid creature. And why not? Obito was just as lonely as him, was of unearthly beauty, and desired Kakashi in the same way that Kakashi desired him. Not to mention he enjoyed Obito's shameless flirting and teasing responses. He was beautiful in so many ways and Kakashi wanted him.
"Yes," he finally replied, his lips parted as he looked between the creature's gorgeously glowing eyes and his impishly, erotic smirk. This was far better than one of the novels he read to himself in his spare time. That was especially true when their mouths clashed together, hungry and needy, tasting each other. Kakashi's hands slid up to explore Obito's sides, caressing contrasting marble dotted with small, barely perceivable scales. His touch making the creature keen and moan into Kakashi's mouth, only for him as he swallowed it down, enjoying the tune of its flavor and its owner.
When Obito pulled away, Kakashi allowed his oxygen-deprived lungs to take in breaths of cool air that did nothing to calm the heat that was spreading through his limbs. He needed Obito and he needed him now.
A soft whimper crawled its way up his throat and Obito hushed him by caressing his cheek and his lower lip with the pad of his thumb, a cunning smile on his lips. "I suppose this would be enough for now, although I do hate releasing those lips so soon," he murmured wistfully although the hint of mischief still held in his expression.
Kakashi kissed the digit and met it with his tongue, licking it with revere before blissfully allowing it to pass his lips. Just like his kiss, Obito's skin tasted of earthly and unearthly, like mint and rainy days, but also of ozone with a tingle of something wild and magical beneath his skin. It was as though a lightning storm was stored in his core and Kakashi found it addicting to be saddled by someone who felt so powerful.
Obito purred, his eyes going half-lidded as he watched Kakashi suckle on his thumb, and it only intensified the heat coiling low in Kakashi's being. He gripped Obito's thighs that much tighter, edging his hands further back to cup his ass.
"You're making it even more difficult than I thought. Just how is it that one can be so perfect?" Obito mused aloud, grinding his hips down on Kakashi's once more, making them both keen into the movement. But a moment later, he took back his thumb as Kakashi eyed him just as lustfully with merely a hint of confusion.
"What do you mean?" Kakashi asked, silenced by another kiss, this one just as hungry as the last. Things were getting much more heated than before and Kakashi was becoming eager to shimmy out of his sleeping bag and into a closer embrace with the creature.
When Obito pulled away again, he sighed and tilted Kakashi's chin up to meet his gaze more evenly. "It means that I really must leave you wanting, Kakashi Hatake," he answered and in an instant, he became weightless and almost incorporeal.
"No! Wait… Where are you going?" Kakashi asked frantically sitting up and shaking his head frantically before repeating the question in Rinne. Obito simply grinned at him before he fully disappeared as though he was simply an echo of the ancients that Kakashi had spent so long searching for. He couldn't lose Obito so soon after finding him.
Kakashi bolted up as quick as he could, tossing his sleeping bag to the side and stumbling in nothing but his undergarments to push aside the tent flaps. "Obito!" he called into the forest, receiving no reply but the call of the forest that had ceased whilst he was in the fair creature's company. He tried again, calling for him into the night, but to no avail. Obito was long gone and Kakashi could only hope to see him again soon, although, with the way Obito flirted with him, there was no doubt in his mind that he'd see him again.
An awe-inspired grin crossed his face and his heart fluttered happily. Yes, he'd definitely be seeing Obito again soon.
